We are looking for a safe place to store our luggage for a few hours in Charlotte Amalie. We have a late flight and need to check out of our St John hotel by 11:00 AM. We want to visit the city and have lunch before we head to the Airport without dragging bags around.
Thanks
Al
Hello Al,
The Chamber of Commerce Hospitality Lounge and the Tourism Office used to offer this service. I called both places and neither offer the service anymore... reasons 9/11 & Homeland Security; and neither knew of any other alternatives.

Any of the taxi drivers that are on the waterfront ,when you get off of the downtown ferry, will store your luggage for you, until you return for them to take you to the airport. It's pretty safe, they do it all the time.

Thanks Ronnie!
Didn't think of that. Do you know if they charge extra for holding the luggage?
Al - get the taxi drivers business card or telephone number, that way if you want to leave town a little earlier then the planned time or for whatever reason something comes up you can get on a pay phone and give the driver a call.

They charge a few dollars extras, but well worth it. In fact when they say they will meet you back at a specific time.....they mean it
